Knock-knock!!!

Tell us a little about yourself and say hello to the gang. We would like to hear about who, what, and why you ride as well as how you found us.

Welcome to the boards. That's one clean looking Bandit 400... I bet that thing is an absolute blast to scream around on. Very cool. As for dirt... I know there are alot of dirt riders over at TWTex.com, though that's not a dirt-specific forum. If you register and ask around there, I'm sure they can point you to the local dirt messageboards. We also have a few members on here (RC30fan, Blinker, and others) who do dirt riding, as well.

Hi Rydethis. If you do decide to settle down here, dirt riding season is just around the corner. I like to do dirt-track style riding, not trails. A member here can attest to why...


This is the style of off-road riding I enjoy - like road racing on dirt:


Were hoping to get a big group together soon.

I'm trying to get a transfer from my school so if the classes and financial aid lines up properly I'll be here. I wont be able to chat with my counselor until I go back on Monday...and that's when I'll get the ball rolling. My dad has been sick and I want to be near him. I'm hoping around Thanksgiving.

*blows dust off of thread* Turns out I fell in love and moved to Elkhart, TX. Not too far from dad in Arlington. So if anyone is ever around these parts... let me know. I've been here since May and haven't been riding yet. Just got a job so I can finally get my bike registered to ride out.

I hope yall will have me even though I'm a bit far away. :-D :o
